It’s never too early for Torah.
The Global Yarchei Kallah, an annual summit of leading rabbonim, roshei yeshiva and mashpiim, began a day earlier this year at the request of its distinguished participants.
Beginning Tuesday night, dozens of rabbis kept coming in to Camp Gan Israel in Parksville, NY from their respective yeshivos and communities around the world.
They were warmly greeted by Rabbi Abraham Shemtov, the host and Chairman of Agudas Chassidei Chabad International and head of the camp.
The gathering known for its intense study and discussion of Torah and halacha was established 40 years ago to honor the yartzeit of Hagaon Rabbi Levi Yitzchok Schneerson OBM, on the 20th of Av.
His son, the Rebbe, has over the years taken a unique and detailed interest in the gathering, inquiring about its proceedings and even saying a special sicha on the same Shabbos it was held.
Beginning a day earlier, on Wednesday morning, was done at the urging of the rabbis who use the opportunity to immerse themselves in in-depth learning, but also for practical exchanges about challenges yeshivos face.
Despite the wish to be present, two of the guests will be arriving late because of their membership in the election body that voted on Israel’s new chief rabbis.
A closed doors meeting on Thursday morning will dedicated to matters effecting the rabbinical world and specifically the yeshiva world today.
Also, if possible, a list of names under the pictures. Really important for the young generation to know these Rabbis.
Include the names of the younger people who are not yet known to all or better yet, all names. Very good pictures. One of R’ Avremels best projects
